"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Repeal

As of 21 September, the repeal of the law known as "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is final.  Accordingly, all Coast Guard policies relating to it are no longer in effect; our remaining policies are sexual-orientation neutral.  The links below provide further guidance to DADT repeal policy.
